Comments on Link to Windows for Android

★★★★☆ Chulo Money · Jun 27, 2026
To move files from my pc to my phone seems is such a long process. It takes too long to reflect on my phone
★★★★★ Gang Ster · Jul 15, 2026
Easy connection between my phone and my computer
★★★★★ K1NG Arthur · Jul 11, 2026
New to Microsoft apps and eager to learn best practices and oversight with easy access and collaborative support. . Only issue is linking device to Windows with some apprehension with personal security and privacy
★★★★☆ Michael King · Jul 11, 2026
The application is great. I was able to text my family from my computer today. I did have an issue with the application, because I set it up with an old phone then first I had to figure out how to remove that data and then install the new data on my computer and phone.
★☆☆☆☆ Andrew McDonald · Jul 11, 2026
1. Loses connection whilst phone is next to laptop 2. SMS actions on laptop aren't always mirrored on the phone. 3. image transfers are very slow 4. Fails to re-establish connection when I return home.
★★☆☆☆ Police Department · Jul 1, 2026
I am concerned that this application may expose my mobile device by opening a network service or communication channel for data exchange. If an attacker were to compromise my computer, could they leverage this application's communication mechanisms or exploit a vulnerability within it to gain unauthorized access to my mobile device?
★☆☆☆☆ Daniel · Jul 15, 2026
